I'm making a fishing rod for my best friend and his name is "Bear".. So I decided to make it a bear theme rod. I'm still working on the grip but the hard part is over. Just have to finish the butt cap with Alaska state quater in it..... Let me know what you think

and yes that is cork inlayed in the grip not a sticker... I sent an email to my dad to show him and he asked me if it was a sticker.... lol... It take me a little bit to figure out how to inlay the paw print but I came out pretty darn good if you ask me...
